How Does LifeSource Support Donor Families?
It is our privilege to walk alongside families at the time of donation and to offer support and resources in the months and years that follow through our Donor Family Aftercare Program.
LifeSource is honored to fulfill the decision of people in our community to save lives through tissue and organ donation. Families like The Yangs found healing knowing their son saved lives and helped others.
The organ donation process has been described as symphony; it takes many people working in concert to make the complex process happen.
Organ Procurement Organizations (OPOs) are the vital bridge between donors, their families and potential recipients.
At LifeSource, we have a clear purpose – to inspire the public to register and work with all of our partners to support donor families, manage the donation process, transport the gifts to the transplant center and lead our communities towards a culture of donation.
